The weather was nasty. I got seasick.

Look at the stern as they unloaded our catch.

Good Morning. We departed last night on a 1.5 to Yellowfin Tuna trip with Captain Bill Cavanaugh about the Pacific Queen. Normally, we run this trip in Morro Bay but considering that Morro had not seen many fish this year we decided to run the trip from San Diego. Everybody was very excited to fish with Bill and the boys.

We searched for kelps. We did catch fish on most of the kelps but we were really looking for the honey hole.

Roland wasn't very happy because he caught the JP Dorado and I didn't get a picture before the fish went into the fish hold.

We had a great trip. Thanks to Ryan and the crew for doing an awesome job.

Fish Count: 13 Anglers caught 100 Rockfish, 10 Ocean Whitefish, 1 California Halibut, 30 Vermilion Rockfish, and 30 Lingcod (Released).
